Protecting the seats on a hard-working ute or SUV has never been easier with the latest range of  Tradies Seat Covers that are now available in New Zealand.

Designed and made especially for ute and SUV models sold in our market, the Tradies covers are described as the “ultimate protection” to keep seats looking like new.

And now there are two colour options available; the ever-popular standard grey and a new black that is offered on certain models to better match vehicle interiors.

“Tradies seat covers have been very popular in New Zealand and now with the addition of black covers to the range we can satisfy almost any Tradie looking for vehicle-specific canvas seat covers,” says Tim Paterson, National Sales Manager for Griffiths Equipment, which distributes Tradies Seat Covers throughout New Zealand.

Tradies covers are perfect for those who use their vehicles constantly such as professional drivers and tradespeople because they are in and out of their seats all day long.

They’re made from thick, hard-wearing 470gsm (14oz) polyester canvas material that is rip and tear-resistant and also 100% waterproof – spills just wipe clean. Thanks to these quality materials and manufacturing, vehicle owners can expect Tradies Seat Covers to last and continue to look good.

Some materials can stretch over time as occupants get in and out of the vehicle, but Tradies keep their shape because they are made with canvas on both sides. By providing complete canvas coverage on the back as well as the front, Tradies offer a lot more protection to the rear of the seat especially for those who carry tools and work equipment in the back. 

Tradies also incorporate a generous size map pocket in the back.

They’re guaranteed to fit, too. Every Tradies Seat Cover is fully custom fabricated to snugly fit the seats (front and rear) of the vehicles for which they are designed, including split folds to match the contours of the seat and reinforced openings to accommodate seatbelts.

Mr Paterson says the Tradies range covers 30 different vehicle models on the New Zealand market, including Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, Mazda BT50, Nissan Navara, Mitsubishi Triton and Isuzu DMax for both front and rear seats, including headrests.

All Tradies Seat Covers are protected by a 5-year factory warranty and are available from leading automotive retail outlets throughout New Zealand.
